What’s the first thing you ever ordered from Amazon? (1 Viewer)

Just for fun, my most recent purchase, which arrived a couple days ago.. A girlfriend gave me the iconic poster circa 1992, but I’d always wanted a replica of the shirt itself.. Am i too old to get away with wearing it? I see people walking around in pajamas these days, so who cares:

It was Thomas Sowell's book a Conflict of Visions but I don't remember when it was purchased.
It was probably in the late 90's when they were mostly known for selling books.

How could you be too old to wear a T-shirt from the 70s?

For stalking?

Oddly enough, now my 19 year old daughter works in an Amazon warehouse. My first purchase was before she was born.

I was on Amazon today and i stumbled across the little gray box under ‘Returns & Orders’ that lets you see past orders from every year you’ve been a member (I’m Prime but it might be the same for non-Prime, I’m not sure).. I’d never messed with it before, but out of curiosity i clicked on the earliest year listed, 2005, and saw that the very first thing i ever ordered from amazon.com was a special edition DVD of my favorite movie, Jerry Maguire.. Apparently it wasnt available at Best Buy, since that’s where i typically purchased DVDs back then.. Looks like i paid $25; i was dismayed to see that if I’d just waited another 15 yrs, that same special edition DVD is now only $7.95!

Was also interesting, to me at least, to see that from 2006-2010, i only ordered exactly three more items from Amazon: a Samsung Bluetooth earpiece in 2007, and DVDs of L.A. Story and Singles in 2008.. then I started ordering pretty regularly around 2011/2012.

What’s your earliest Amazon purchase, and when?

I was able to go back to 2003 but I don't have any orders until 2006. I may have had a different email or account before then. But my first purchase was Pink Floyd's Pulse on dvd.
